I have discussed this overlap with Leif. After this patch series is 
added, the EmbeddedPkg maintainers can convert that package to use
this lib and delete the duplicate sources.

Please provide constructive feedback on what is not good about this specific 
libc
Implementation so that appropriate code updates could be made for this patch 
series.

This is following the same pattern as other libs that are consuming a submodule
that requires some amount of libc support.

Getting down to one libc wrapper would be great.  Do you want to provide a 
proposed
implementation?  That could be handled as a separate task.
